Police & Fire: February 7, 2013

Sault Police were summoned to a local apartment complex shortly after 2 a.m. today where a man displayed an injured finger.

According to his version of events, the man was in his apartment when an ex-girlfriend knocked on the window. The man went outside and asked her to leave, triggering an outburst of yelling from the woman. When the man flipped the woman off she grabbed his middle finger and bit it — leaving marks that were still present when police arrived to investigate the matter.

The woman was located by police shortly after 3 a.m. in the 600 block of W. Portage, but denied biting the man or even going to his apartment.

Rebecca Briggs, 25, of the Sault was subsequently arrested for domestic assault and booked into the Chippewa County Jail.
